The grass isn’t always greener on the other side…

Hi (Furry)furriends💗

You better take a rest somewhere else

Stippie…

because you’re grounded

and I have to stay in as well…

so I don’t want any distractions 

from you anymore…

because I have a story to tell…

and it’s all about you…

and it started Tuesday morning at 6:30…

you had been staring at that pot-angel

for quite some time…

and looking out for a moment…

that there was no chaperone nearby…

and if she was…

you purrtended

that you were just playing around…

and exploring other things…

like you were distracting us

with what you’re up to…

but Granny saw it in your cattitude

and face

for a long time…

that you would try…

when she didn’t keep an eye

on you…

and when I was trying to climb 

in the apple tree

which I could…

but once I was in the middle of the tree

I didn’t know how to get down anymore

as I don’t jump from up there

on the ground

like you do…

so Granny had to help me

to put me safe on the ground again…

when we saw you jumping on pot-angel

and from there over the fence

of the neighbours…

…who have doggies…🙀

Granny and I were so worried…

I was walking back and forth

and heard you crying meowing 

not knowing how to get back to us

into our garden…

Granny ran to the neighbours house

calling for you

but it was so early in the morning

that no-one heard her…

as effurry one was still asleep…

and you didn’t dare to get away from the fence…

so she ran back to our house

and still saw me stressful

walking from one side to the other…

and it broke Granny’s heart to see me like this

and to hear you calling for her

…she really felt so helpless…

and I saw her tears running from her eyes…

in that moment a wonder happened…

you found your way back over the fence

and because of the barriers

you had to jump from up there

to the ground…

that’s why Granny has spoken to you

admonishingly…

and had also to built another barrier

on top of the fountain…

for your own safety…

…because you tried to jump on the shed too…

and she had to find another barrier

for pot-angel

because she felt sorry for me

that I had to stay inside too

because of your actions…

so until Grandpaw came home from work

she skewered the pot-angel…

and when Grandpaw was home

he and two-feet grandson

put pot-angel next to other pot-angel…

so you can’t climb it again…

with all its consequences…

and besides you have to learn…

that the grass may look greener on the other side

but that doesn’t mean

that there’s no danger…

So we’re very 

T H A N K F U L

that this story has a happy end

and that we are allowed to go

in the garden again…

WITH Granny…

she keeps an eye on us

all the time…

she even irons in the garden

to be sure Stippie is there too…

she says she needs to gain trust in you again

so no more alonies for us

until then…

but she has to admit

that you have been a very good boy since then…

you really made it up to her

so she can have faith again in you…

Granny knows that I listen better…

most of the times…

and I don’t even want to know 

what’s on the other side…

I know what I have

and not what I get

and besides

I don’t what anything or anyone else

then my Granny and Grandpaw…

*mumbles*

“I can’t jump that high anyway…”

And now let’s do a poem for my furriends

Angel Sammy and his brother Teddy again

on this picture…

“I feel like a fish in the water

even if no-one can see

swimming is one thing 

that I learned very quicklee

and that I adored

even before I was born

remember the kicking

from left to the right

inside your tummy

effurry day and effurry night

just like a mermaid

flipping around

but better hold me tight now

before I splashdown.”

😺Have a Happy Thursday my furriends😸
